It has also been mentioned that hypo-functioning <em>Agni</em> is the root cause of every diseases. <em>Agni</em> plays a vital role in maintaining health and balancing the equilibrium of <em>Dosa</em>, <em>Dhatu</em> and <em>Mala</em>. So, to bring the function of <em>Agni</em> to normalcy, besides maintaining proper diet and regimen, <em>Deepaniya</em> drugs are advised. Ten members of <em>Deepaniya mahakashaya</em> are discussed here critically based on their <em>Rasapanchak</em> i.e., <em>Rasa, Guna, Virya, Vipaka</em> and <em>Karma</em>. In this review article a comparative study has been done on <em>Deepaniya mahakashaya</em> as mentioned in <em>Charaka Samhita</em> and discussed in relation to <em>Bhavaprakash Nighantu</em>, <em>Dhanwantari Nighantu, Raj Nighantu and Kaiyadev Nighantu</em>. Along with this, the functions of the drugs mentioned in these classics in the light of modern perspectives are also discussed critically.</p&gt;}, number={4}, journal={International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharma Research}, author={Ruma Dey and Chakraborty Swagata and Das Aparajita}, year={2021}, month={Jun.}, pages={52-58} }
